The property was okay for a minimum day stay. Not particularly dirty but just kinda worn out. No coffee maker in room which was a disappointment. Good for a one night stay.

The stay was good but, the TV had lines through it and the volume would fade out or go super loud. Front desk attendant was helpful and friendly wish I had a name to mention. Room setup was great with two bed in the back and one up front. We stayed for 7 days would most definitely be returning in the future. Room service was ever other day so if want it every day you must request.
